I took the Hello World tutorial an an example and changed it as below. It is interesting that if you start the visual effect first, it seems to block the "move field". But if you do it the way I have below, it works on Windows and Linux (although clunkyness may be platform dependent I suspect). To me it seems that Revolution is mutithreaded sometimes.
I gotta run, but will answer better tonight.
In the mean time, look at wait...with messages. This will give you an idea of how move works concerning messages. Keep this in mind. In wait new messages can be started, but they must complete; there is not interleaving of commands in two handlers.
I use move without waiting (and use the callback). I don't know of a non-blocking special effect. I should have noticed you mentioned special effect. There may be a way to emulate that.
